66. What the IRA did was often horrible(there was no excuse for the "soft targets" campaign in England)

and I don't approve of the blowing up of pubs simply because they were in Unionist/Loyalist neighborhoods...but don't we need to admit that everything the British did in the Six Counties was equally evil to the worst actions of the IRA?

The British were NEVER in that area after 1969 with any positive intent.
